A downloadable game

!ATTENTION!

This game contains subjects that may be found offensive to some people. These include, alcohol use, use of fantasy drugs (and no I'm not talking your standard health potions), swear words, gambling, violence. Viewer discretion is advised.

TAKE NOTE:

This is a game I've been working on for fun, as I wanted a way to share my worldbuilding with others, and I thought this would be a nice way to do it, even though I understand that many people don't bother with IF games anymore. This game will be updated whenever I get around to finishing up adding new things, and as such will likely be sporadic in its updates. Also the save updater is not currently added, mostly because I doubt anyone has held onto a save code due to the fact only one person ever downloaded the game as of the point at which I'm writing this, however it will be added eventually.

THE GAME:

The game is getting further along now,  and it hopefully won't be long before I add a character creation menu and combat. The story is you work in a mining camp in a world called the Psychescape, and they won't let you back out unless you make enough money to buy a permit. So really all you can do is mine and pay them off, I won't spoil what happens after that, but if I'm honest, there isn't really much at this point, but the game is intended to be something of an open-world rpg. I'm already working on adding more places for the next update, so stay tuned if you like the style, and give me suggestions if you want.

I have multiple things that I am either considering or going to add, and I would love to hear back from anyone who has an opinion on the game, such as  what they think and what might make it better.

THINGS I PLAN TO ADD:

1.) Next up in my line of things to do is character creation, that will be for sure the next thing that comes out (that is if I don't have to fix any fatal errors I missed), and it may come out standalone just to get it out there. With this introduction will come the stats page, which will likely not affect much until the combat update.

 2.) Combat, some simple fights to begin with before I get too into it to make sure it works before progressing too far. Combat will include skills and buffs/debuffs and such, varying weapon types that do more damage, and anything else I decide to throw in.

* A way to build up your own place in varying areas, allowing certain actions to be performed and possible ways to make/increase your profit.

* More places to go and things to do, such as hunting, NPC interactions, and other varying things to do that would make the game more interesting.

THINGS I MAY ADD:

* If I can figure it out and advance in my programming  as well as either find a good artist or become a good artist, I would love to make a version of the game that is more along the lines of a visual novel.

* If I can figure out how to make my python code into an executable, I would love to add those for downloads.

Install instructions

!IN ORDER TO PLAY THIS GAME , PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE LATEST VERSION OF PYTHON INSTALLED!

I apologize for the fact that this currently includes no executable file, and I will be looking into how to make such a file from python code in the future, for now it only runs using python. However this does bring the benefit of it should work on any computer that can run python, meaning Linux, Mac, and Windows. In order to run the game, decompress the file and run the runModule.py specifically, and the game will start up.
